So MIL made me Look up the full moon because her, her sister and her brother were all born on full moons... If he comes on a full moon, it's either Monday or he'll have to Wait and be late, because the next one is May 17th... Gawd I hope he isn't late, I just started to not be able to put my shoes and socks on easily.

May 14th, but he has been measuring a week ahead since 20 weeks. So my ultrasounds after week 20 say May 8th, but doc didn't want to move my due date.

Hmmmm.....so is May 14th 40weeks or 38? Do you know how they do that? I was thinking about that the other day...if your DD is 40weeks or less? I know they told me they want the baby at least 36 weeks but after 42, they will induce because the baby's "environment starts to become compromised," aka the placenta starts breaking down....

May 14th is 40 weeks. The only time your due date is 38 weeks is if your doctor goes by the date you conceived, and not your last period. I will be 36 weeks on Saturday, or if he really is a week ahead, I will be 37, lol.

Oh okay. I have my conception date narrowed down to about 2 days because I was doing ovulation tests every day.

My u/s is the showing the same gestational age as I was thinking for baby--which is nice....I am still having to have a c-section which is kind of scary but hopefully everything will be okay. I am hoping that baby will cooperate and I'll be able to schedule one around 38 weeks...

so you may go before me, you know may 8th is also mothers day. as for me I am betting that friday the 13th will be the day, but I am with you....I need to have shane before may 15th or I have to work another week and I can't imagine working full time at 40 wks pregnant (41 it would be actually). But last time my dr said I have a smaller baby so I wonder if he will take a little longer to incubate.
good luck at your appt today, we will compare notes later.

Ha! We had a guy come in yesterday that was a Jack Daniels. No kidding! Had a full gray beard and had on overalls. I had to go in the back and giggle.

I had a class in 11th grade with a boy named Benjamin Dover. Everyone called him Ben.. But the funniest time I can remember was in Homeroom. The principal would come over the intercom every morning making announcements and calling students to the office... She quickly read off a list of names and seemlessly uttered Ben Dover without slowing up. You could hear laughing across the whole school. Poor guy....
